The Canadian producers of the 2007 remake of George of The Jungle served up something Jay Ward & Bill Scott had failed to do 40 years earlier. That being, a Christmas episode.
Two Christmas shorts here. "Jungle Bells" "The Goat of Christmas Presents", and it all starts with "Jungle Bells", in which Ursula teaches George and the gang about the holiday.
This episode was the first that aired on Cartoon Network, understandably, as the rest of the series would follow several weeks later.
However, after initial cancellation, Classic Media brought the series back in Canada in 2016, with more changes. George looked more like his original design. Ursula and Magnolia, the latter a witch doctor's daughter in season 1, were merged together (in 1967, Magnolia was Tom Slick's girl), and there were other alterations that didn't make it to the US. Like, unnecessary, eh?
Rating: C-.
